What were you force to learn in school that, looking back now, was a complete waste of time?
Should we abandoned the metric system? A USAToday.com editorial thinks it's time to let it fade from American culture. It's not used everywhere, but you still fine it occasionally on items like the half-liter juice box or 2-liter of Coke. The one industry that won't let it go is the auto industry. They're still hanging on to metric measurements for engines to give them a Euro-tinge. For example, the new Mustang 5.0 liter engine is the "biggest engine size badge" they have ever put on a car. THERE SHOULD BE A LAW! Pick one system of measurement and run with it.

Here's a possible solution -- the VIOlight uses UV light to zap away, they say, 99% of germs and bacteria. That includes delightful E coli, listeria, salmonella, and more. The gadget zaps cell phones, PDA's, earbuds and headphones. $50. Look for it this October.

The new survey from the Pew Research Center reported that more than one in four American adults said they have texted while driving — the same as driving-age teenagers."
WHO SAID IT?
"He's got more talent in those bangs than I've got in my whole body."

JOKE OF THE DAY
A man picks up a woman at a bar for a one-night stand. They go back to her place for a few hours and after the passion dies down, the man kisses the woman and says: "I'd love to stay, but I bet your husband will be coming home any time now."
"Husband?" the lady asks: "What makes you think I have a husband?"
The man says: "I couldn't help but notice the picture of that man on your nightstand."
The lady laughs and replies: "Oh, don't be silly. That's just me before the surgery.”
